ACCOMODATIONCompetitors can sleep where they prefer to.

Being that Rome is a city visited by a lot of tourists, hotel prices are quite high, so we suggest that you book your room as soon as possible.

We definitely also suggest you to stay at walking distance with respect to where the championship will be held. This will avoid worries that could penalise the athletes’ mental status, and will also avoid delays. In this regard, please remember that competitors that won’t be present at the beginning of the competition will remain outside the room until the starting of the following discipline.
